Clover Darning Needles with Latch Hook Eye vs Bent Tip Darning Needles - Set of 2

Both are Clover darning needles about 2 3/4 inches long, but they solve different problems. The Latch Hook Eye pair is the better pick for threading thick, multi-ply yarns and for knitters who add or drop strands as they work; the latch opens the eye so bulky yarn goes through without a struggle. The Bent Tip pair is the better pick for weaving in ends and working through tight stitches, where the angled tip gives leverage and the large blunt eye takes most yarn weights. Owners rate the Bent Tip set highly, and both are steel needles built to last.

• Choose the Clover Latch Hook Eye if you knit or darn with bulky, multi-ply yarns and want an eye that opens so you can thread and re-thread without squinting.
• Choose the Clover Bent Tip if you mostly weave in ends and work through tight stitches, where the angled tip and big eye make the job faster.
